This n That around my house.

I love decorating my house. And it seems like a never ending process. Which I LOVE...because it always gives me something FUN to focus on. That is...when I have free time. My problem is that I won't decorate a certain spot, unless the piece that I am adding, is something that I LOVE LOVE LOVE. Which is why I still have a few bare spots around my walls.

A new store recently opened up close to my house though, and it has given me the 'bug' to start filling up some of those empty spots. I literally LOVE everything in their store. It's called Rod Works. For those of you in Utah...it just arrived here in AZ and I am in LOVE.

I finally found a few things to cover the bare spot between my two family room windows.

The outlining rod iron piece is actually meant to hold a calendar. But I like to think....that I thought 'outside' the box. Wink!

I've also been wanting to re-do my kitchen table centerpiece area. It was feeling pretty drab. {No picture to prove it, but trust me}. Lucky for me, I have a SUPER talented mom who can sew like there's no tomorrow. I went to Hobby Lobby and picked out some fabric to match my kitchen {40% off of course. Woot!} My mom whipped me up a table runner and I am in love.

While at the Hob-Lob, I also found a cute tin black vase {50% off} and a bouquet of red flowers {also 50% off} and I came up with this:

I love the ball-ed detail on the ends of the runner. That mom of mine. There's not much she can't do.

And to top it all off...London approves. Which is kind of a big deal. Because if she had it her way...our entire house would be PINK!

Side Note: I apologize for the repeated use of the word LOVE. I just can't help myself.
